Apps: SFTP App

This App works with any SFTP server. 


Configure your SFTP Server

We recommend that you create a separate user for Blit. This user must be able to create folders and files and navigate in the folders created.


Configure the Blit App

Once a new user has been created in your FTP server, you can create a new SFTP App:

  • Name: A custom name used in web captures to select the App
  • Type:  SFTP
  • Username: The username used by Blit to log in to your SFTP server.
  • Password: The password used by Blit to log in to your SFTP server.
  • Port: The port number of the SFTP server (22 by default)
  • Path: The folder where captures will be uploaded. See our guide for using variables.
  • File name: The file name used for the captures. See our guide for using variables.




Then click on Verify. Blit will attempt to upload the image blit.png to the path specified. If there is a problem, an error message will be shown. You can also check if you see the file in your SFTP server for confirmation.



Now that App app has been configured and verified, you can use it with new and existing captures.
